What is up with all the pop up ads i am getting from the forums now, is anyone else recieving them?

AudioBoxer · Nov 21st, 2002, 10:12 PM

HMMMMM..... I am not getting any! What internet service are you using? If something other than AOL go to https://www.finagle.com/ and get that it works wonders, plus its free, you can also set settings on it to the pop-ups! WHat kinda pop uppies are coming up?

Si|ent · Nov 21st, 2002, 10:14 PM

It only happens sometimes and no im could never bring myself to ever use AOL and i am not worring too much since this is my folks computer and not mine since mine has left the building for a bit.

Audioboxer is right: it's a problem you may be experiencing because of some advert software you unintentionally installed on your PC. They usually come along with messengers or file sharing programs. It's not the forums, we don't have pop ups services.

You could at least try closing these programs, if they're bothering you. But since sometimes they're invisible, I'm not sure it'll be easy, considering it's not your PC

Si|ent · Nov 21st, 2002, 10:22 PM

Yea i would know where to begin since there is so much unnecessary junk on this computer but its ok i guess ill just have to tolerate it.

Wow someone has their undies in a bundle the only point being made there is the fact that i stated in my second post it wasnt my computer so you didnt need to read my mind just read my post.

No, we don't have pop-up ads. The problem, as Fortune said, is probably caused by advertising software installed on your computer. File sharing software or certain Instant messengers comes all-in-one with this add-ons, that you can't uninstall uless you uninstall the whole program. Gator is one of these evil pop-upping program.

Gator huh? I've been having trouble with that one lately. I went to Control Panel then add/remove files and it wasn't listed under there so i have no idea how to get rid of it. Can somebody offer me help? I have 56k hell as it is and lately these pop-ups have been freezing my computer up. I think I also need to defragment my hard drive.

_RED_ stuff

Now Im starting to get pop-ups. Thing is, it's doing it on both my home computer and the one at school - and the one at school has software that blocks anybody from downloading programs (like messengers, P2P stuff, etc.).

Somehow, Gator got on my comp once. I just searched for the files and ripped them out manually.

We're adding pop-up, since it's the only way to support the website. I'll post more details in General Chat.

Too bad nobody realizes how much it costs to create a website like this! My father is a webmaster, and I know the problems you can have.
